[hometext] => Some know who this is for... someone near and dear to my heart... comment if u plz...
[bodytext] => Every now and then... Every then and now... When I dream of you The dream seems so real... somehow It all seems so true... There we are... standing on the edge The great precipice of life... Before our eyes I'm pleading with you to stop... and turn around your life... But you edge closer and closer to the drop Even with my every plea for you to stop... You seem determined to throw your life away When you're mere inches from taking the step... You turn and smile at me Speaking with those beautiful eyes... you say... "Everything's gonna be okay... You will see... 'Cause right now... it's hell to be me!" And there I stand... looking on... so helplessly... Watching you edge closer and closer to eternity Knowing full well... I will never see you again... my friend... But what can I do... to help you? Every now and then... Every then and now... When I think of you I start to cry... somehow... Just a tear or two Then I get to feeling so lonely... so blue 'Cause I feel as though I'm standing here... Just like in the dream I'm looking on... so helplessly Not knowing... if or when...I'll ever see you again... my friend... But what can I do... to help you? "Nothing really..." would be your reply... "I've got to pick and chose my own life" In my heart... I know... this is true... Growing up has not been easy for you You're expected to be an adult... And you're not... But you're not still a child... You're just stuck somewhere in between Living life in the wilds To this... I can totally relate... You have a different mind state These are different times... in which we live... Then... when I was a kid But what can I do... to help you? To help you choose a path less traveled Instead of the path... where life starts a downward spiral 'Cause you mean the world to me You're in my heart... Where you'll always be If I should die today... tonight or tomorrow... At least... I know in my heart... that I have tried... To help you... Though I don't know Hopefully... I have planted a seed... that in time may grow It's up to you... the ball's in your court I'm here... babe... if you ever need support... And do whatever I can for you...
